Cricket has such lovely fluffy fur. It just makes me want to be able to pet her. I guess I get to look forward to seeing Missy playing with paper and ribbons in the near future. She already insists on sitting on any pile of paper that's around (including any work papers that I'm trying to actively read or organize, etc...) and has a major attraction to the shredded paper in my garbage pail. (I have a portable shredder that hooks over the top of a regular size office garbage can). She loves those long strips of shredded paper She'll spend ages messing around with it. I've actually left the garbage basket half full, of the shredded stuff because it's a hoot to watch her fish it out and it doesn't hurt anything for her to play in it. Cats sure are interesting - and entertaining - little creatures.
